negative experience with Adoption Access

Our adopted son was born August 2002. While at Presbyterian hospital in Dallas, our birthmother was approached by several representatives of Adoption Access. Our birthmother apparently started talking to another birthmother in the hospital who was going through Adoption Access. The representatives started talking to our birthmother and convinced her to get us to agree to a list of demands 12 hours before she was to sign the final paperwork. They KNEW that she and the birthfather had been working with us and that we were the chosen adoptive parents. I was the birthing coach and the first one to hold my son, we had already agreed upon a semi-open adoption.
I thought it was in EXTREMELY POOR TASTE and VERY UNPROFESSIONAL of these particular representatives of Adoption Access to continue speaking to our birtmother after learning that she had already chosen us.
That is my only experience with that agency and I hope no one else has had this happen to them!
